NBA 2023 Offensive and Defensive Ratings (Nov 7)

3 years ago by streetfestival to c/nba

Plot explanation

  • ORtg & DRtg: Offensive ratings (ORtg) are estimates of how many points teams score per 100 possessions, and higher is better. Defensive ratings (DRtg) are estimates of how many points teams' opponents score on them per 100 possessions, and lower is better.

  • Four quadrants: Teams in the top-left quadrant have the best net rating (estimated point differential per 100 possessions), and teams in the bottom-right quadrant have the worst. The bottom-left quadrant represents teams who are better defensively than offensively, and the top-right quadrant are those who are better offensively than defensively.

They're hidden under the Kings - they have basically the same ratings (below). Thanks for catching this!
Sacramento Kings (ORtg, DRtg): 109.8, 115.0
New Orleans Pelicans (ORtg, DRtg): 109.9, 114.9
